Crude Oil, Natural Gas and Refined Products Price Modeling, Forecast and Predictions
About This Course
An essential component of decision-making in the energy sector is oil prices. Stakeholders in the energy industry are constantly confronted with factors and data that could negatively or positively impact oil prices. These data are drawn from analysis of geopolitical events, changes in supply and demand, and the financial markets.
What are the factors that determine the price of oil?
As a crucial aspect of the global economy, various factors play a role in determining oil prices. First, demand and supply are vital factors that impact oil prices. An increased supply of natural gases typically results in reduced oil prices, while a decrease in supply means higher oil prices. Aside from these factors, other factors that impact the prices of oil are:
- The level of oil in storage
- Volumes of oil import and export
- Investing in oil and gas drilling
- Temporary price fluctuations
